Description

Macroeconomics Beyond GDP
Introducing Efficient GDP (EGDP): A Thermodynamic Framework for Institutional Clarity

Is GDP measuring growth—or just masked inefficiency?

In this groundbreaking book, Temesgen M. Erena introduces Efficient GDP (EGDP), a reformist diagnostic that filters out systemic entropy from conventional output metrics. By subtracting the hidden costs of governance decay, motivational drag, and infrastructure suppression, EGDP reveals actual productive capacity—clarified, regenerative, and aligned with human potential.

Rooted in thermodynamics, behavioural science, and information theory, Macroeconomics Beyond GDP operationalizes entropy diagnostics across nations, organizations, and individual work systems. Across eight essays, readers discover how misalignment warps economic signals—and how EGDP restores clarity and dignity to productivity.

🔧 Inside you'll find:

EGDP benchmarking tables across 200+ countries Diagnostic metrics like Burnout Load Index and Governance Load Disparity Satirical case studies dramatizing systemic misfires Entropy ethnography for decoding organizational inefficiency Reform tools linking macro performance to personal economy

EGDP doesn't just adjust GDP—it redefines what progress should feel like.

His work exposes systemic inefficiency through entropy diagnostics, from macroeconomic distortions to individual burnout. Blending empirical rigor with narrative stylization, Temesgen's writing reflects his passion for bottom-up reform and human-centred productivity. He is an author and holds a PhD from the University of West London and an MA in Economics from the University of East Anglia (UEA). His commitment to transparency, modular design, and diagnostic clarity makes Macroeconomics Beyond GDP not just a book—but a living toolkit for institutional renewal.
